Joseph Alcoff, aka “Chepe,” has been charged with 17 counts
of criminal activity after he and several of his Antifa goons attacked and
brutally assaulted two U.S. Marines in Philadelphia last year.

Alcoff, who is the local leader of an Antifa chapter, has
put himself in danger of a very long prison sentence. Among the charges, Alcoff
is being hit with multiple counts of aggravated assault, conspiracy,
terroristic threats, and ethnic intimidation. Remarkably, Alcoff may have
gotten away with his role in the beating were it not for some astute reporting from
The Daily Caller.

From The DC:

The Marines, Alejandro Godinez and Luis Torres, testified in December that a group of 10 to 12 Antifa members called them “Nazis” and “white supremacists” and attacked them on the street despite their denials that they had no association with the right-wing group demonstrating nearby.

During the attack, Godinez said he shouted “I’m Mexican” at the mob, which allegedly led the attackers to call him a “spic” and “wetback.”

Thomas Keenan and Thomas Massey were arrested in November in connection to the beating. Keenan, who has been called a “leader” of the Antifa contingent in the Philadelphia area, was arrested and charged with rioting alongside Alcoff in New Jersey in 2011.

Torres notified detectives in Philadelphia that Alcoff was a member of the group that attacked him after reading TheDCNF’s reporting detailing Alcoff’s connection to Keenan, Philadelphia Magazine reported, citing an affidavit filed in Alcoff’s case.

Alcoff is also an organizer for the Antifa-splinter group
Smash Racism DC, the hooligans who terrified Tucker Carlson’s wife at her home
late last year. So when you think about who owns The Daily Caller, it just
makes their role in bringing Alcoff to justice all the more sweet.

Hopefully, the jury in this case will see fit to throw the
book at Keenan, Massey, Alcoff, and anyone else associated with this vile bit
of violence. The media may be content to ignore this story in favor of the next
nugget of dirt they can dig up on the Proud Boys, but their inattention to
detail won’t matter inside a court of law. If we can’t convince our nation’s mainstream
news gatherers that the violent far left is just as dangerous (if not more so)
than the violent far right, then we must at least have confidence that our
nation’s juries will see through the propaganda. What happened to these Marines
in Philly was despicable, un-American, racist, and unacceptable.
